Tell us what’s happening:
Hello thanks for helping, in the conditions to pass the challenge says:
our regex chewieRegex
should use the *
character to match zero or more a
characters.
Passed
Your regex chewieRegex
should match 16 characters.
Passed
Your regex should match "Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"
.
Here is where I can’t figure out how to complete the challenge since I am trying to get the cases where matchs with “a” but at the same time it is asking to not to match any characters in the sentences wich includes the letters I am looking for.
Your regex should not match any characters in "He made a fair move. Screaming about it can't help you."
Your regex should not match any characters in "Let him have it. It's not wise to upset a Wookiee."
Thanks so much, also I found in the forums:
/a-r/ will search for just that, “a-r”. Here’s an example:
let chewieQuote = "Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-rrrgh!";
let chewieRegex = /a-r*/i;
let result = chewieQuote.match(chewieRegex);
console.log(result); //returns "a-rrr"
when I add “-r*” it detects that it doesn’t match any characters in the last two conditions but fails to detects the characters in the first conditions.
Your code so far
let chewieQuote = "Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrgh!";
let chewieRegex = /a*/i; // Change this line
let result = chewieQuote.match(chewieRegex);
